That a clique COUld Tiot Ulsregartl a wormy upiiaiiL aim substitute a fighter who had no claim to recognition, as shown Tn the Fulton episode, must be a source of satisfaction to those who have at heart the welfare of tho game.

An eight-club circuit is a iKBSiullity in tho Ohio State Ieogue the coming season, according to statement in a letter from President Joe F. Carr to Presldnt C. P. Brower. of the Lexington club, calling; the magnates together for next Sunday for tho annual league meeting.

Oarr in bis letter, in which he says he expects with peace es tablishcd and the big leagues dependent upon tho minor leagues, the most prosper ous seiason baseball has enjoyed in many-years. He points out that If an eight- club circuit iB established mileage to alt the cities comprising the league will be considerably reduced and expenses lessened. Mr.

Carr declares he has been In cor respondence with other nearby cities and can increaso the size of the league If the present club oivners think it wise. He didvnot disclose the names of the citie which may be added to tbe league. PULPIT TO STAGE. Paul Pioneer-Press.) From the ministry to the vaudeville stage is the gap bridged by William Hninsworth, former pastor of the Methodist church at Iron, and i-iuwent ui fiumune university last year. In a letter to John TMnrfchiirst unnW ot Hamllne, and former church of the actor divine, Hatnsworth describes his new profession, which he says Is "somewhat of a sireicning oi me principles of the Methodist Churcli." Halnsworth was pastor of tho Mountain iron cnurcn ror nearly two vears.

Lrnst summer he went on a Chautauqua circuit and now Is the comedian divine of the vaudeville stage in New York. "I finally have bridged tho entlro gap from the ministry to the vaudeville Hninsworth writes. "The work is novel and there are a great manv lllrtv girls to bother a fellow of mv lastes. can't get used to seeing tho women walking behind the stage In kimonos. The paint they expect me to put on mv face is the worst." The demand for war literature in Germany can be surmised from tho fact that between the beginning of the war and December 1, last, 1,500 books and pamphlets falling into that classification were published, while by now the volume has swelled to approximately 6,000 separate works.

FLYING FEET AT 8 TO 1 Special Cable to The Courier-Journal. AVANA. Cuba, Jan. 9. Spirited racing developed In the running of a well-balanced card at Oriental Park this afternoon.

Moae Goldblatt set Cossack down for another winning effort and he cleverly disposed of his field In the fourth race. Queen Apple was second, and Letfetti third.

LILLEY TOPS JOCKEYS By JACK DF.TVTPSEY. Special to The Courter-Journal. EW ORLEANS, Jan. Rain fell here this afternoon, but it lasted only a short while and instead of hurting the Fair Grounds track, It did good. The course lias been in excellent shape since last Tuesday, as was evidenced by the fact that the track record for three furlongs was brofc twice -in four days and owners have had a chance to get their good horsey in shape.

More than 100 horses were on the track this morning and the workouts were witnessed by a large crowd of local turf- ites, but no sensational works were re ported. The three victories of the GIft'ord A. Cochran stable's L'-year-otds put this rac. Ing establishment on top of the purse winning owners' list for the first seven days of the session with to its credit, Etnil Herz is second with a total of VJoO and John W. Schorr third, with $Sla.

The purse m.mivy for the initial week of the meeting was well divided. there being thirty-five owners who won S300 or more In purses. Jockey Walter Lilley rode six winners in the first seven days, and this put him at the head of the riders. Ttd Kocrner had four to his credit as did Albert Mott, and these boys are tied for second place. Jockeys Butweil and Van Pusen each scored three times.

There were twenty- two riders who won one or more races during the week. several or the good riders nave been the ground, including Mack Gamer. who led the Jockeys of the United State for lyjy. Paul Lowder will be back in the saddle to-morrow, and .1. MeTaggart Wednesday.

In addition to this Jockey T.
